wherein A, B, J, K, L and R 3  are as defined in the disclosure. 
Also disclosed are compositions for controlling an invertebrate pest comprising a biologically effective amount of a compound of Formula I an N-oxide thereof or a suitable salt thereof and at least one additional component selected from the group consisting of surfactants, solid diluents and liquid diluents. Also disclosed are methods for controlling an invertebrate pest comprising contacting the invertebrate pest or its environment with a biologically effective amount of a compound of Formula I, its N-oxide or a suitable salt of the compound (e.g., as a composition described herein).

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to certain quinazoline(di)ones, their N-oxides, agriculturally suitable salts and compositions thereof, and a method of use for controlling invertebrate pests in both agronomic and nonagronomic environments.

The control of invertebrate pests is extremely important in achieving high crop efficiency. Damage by invertebrate pests to growing and stored agronomic crops can cause significant reduction in productivity and thereby result in increased costs to the consumer. The control of invertebrate pests in forestry, greenhouse crops, ornamentals, nursery crops, stored food and fiber products, livestock, household, and public and animal health is also important. Many products are commercially available for these purposes, but the need continues for new compounds that are more effective, less costly, less toxic, environmentally safer or have different modes of action.

The heterocyclic ring or ring system can be attached through any available carbon or nitrogen by replacement of a hydrogen on said carbon or nitrogen.

The term “halogen”, either alone or in compound words such as “haloalkyl”, includes fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine. Further, when used in compound words such as “haloalkyl”, said alkyl may be partially or fully substituted with halogen atoms which may be the same or different. Examples of “haloalkyl” include F₃C, ClCH₂, CF₃CH₂ and CF₃CCl₂. The terms “haloalkenyl”, “haloalkynyl”, “haloalkoxy”, “haloalkylthio”, and the like, are defined analogously to the term “haloalkyl”.

In the above recitations, when a compound of Formula I is comprised of one or more heterocyclic rings, all substituents are attached to these rings through any available carbon or nitrogen by replacement of a hydrogen on said carbon or nitrogen.

When a compound is substituted with a substituent bearing a subscript that indicates the number of said substituents can exceed 1, said substituents (when they exceed 1) are independently selected from the group of defined substituents. Further, when the subscript indicates a range, e.g. (R)_(i-j), then the number of substituents may be selected from the integers between i and j inclusive.

The term “optionally substituted with one to three substituents” and the like indicates that one to three of the available positions on the group can be substituted. When a group contains a substituent which can be hydrogen, for example R³ or R⁸, then, when this substituent is taken as hydrogen, it is recognized that this is equivalent to said group being unsubstituted.

Compounds of this invention can exist as one or more stereoisomers. The various stereoisomers include enantiomers, diastereomers, atropisomers and geometric isomers. One skilled in the art will appreciate that one stereoisomer may be more active and/or may exhibit beneficial effects when enriched relative to the other stereoisomer(s) or when separated from the other stereoisomer(s). Additionally, the skilled artisan knows how to separate, enrich, and/or to selectively prepare said stereoisomers. Accordingly, the present invention comprises compounds selected from Formula I, N-oxides and agriculturally suitable salts thereof. The compounds of the invention may be present as a mixture of stereoisomers, individual stereoisomers, or as an optically active form.

One skilled in the art will appreciate that not all nitrogen containing heterocycles can form N-oxides since the nitrogen requires an available lone pair for oxidation to the oxide; one skilled in the art will recognize those nitrogen containing heterocycles which can form N-oxides. One skilled in the art will also recognize that tertiary amines can form N-oxides. Synthetic methods for the preparation of N-oxides of heterocycles and tertiary amines are very well known by one skilled in the art including the oxidation of heterocycles and tertiary amines with peroxy acids such as peracetic and m-chloroperbenzoic acid (MCPBA), hydrogen peroxide, alkyl hydroperoxides such as t-butyl hydroperoxide, sodium perborate, and dioxiranes such as dimethydioxirane. These methods for the preparation of N-oxides have been extensively described and reviewed in the literature, see for example: T. L. Gilchrist in Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, vol. 7, pp 748-750, S. V. Ley, Ed., Pergamon Press; M. Tisler and B. Stanovnik in Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 3, pp 18-20, A. J. Boulton and A. McKillop, Eds., Pergamon Press; M. R. Grimmett and B. R. T. Keene in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 43, pp 149-161, A. R. Katritzky, Ed., Academic Press; M. Tisler and B. Stanovnik in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 9, pp 285-291, A. R. Katritzky and A. J. Boulton, Eds., Academic Press; and G. W. H. Cheeseman and E. S. G. Werstiuk in Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry, vol. 22, pp 390-392, A. R. Katritzky and A. J. Boulton, Eds., Academic Press.

The salts of the compounds of the invention include acid-addition salts with inorganic or organic acids such as hydrobromic, hydrochloric, nitric, phosphoric, sulfuric, acetic, butyric, fumaric, lactic, maleic, malonic, oxalic, propionic, salicylic, tartaric, 4-toluenesulfonic or valeric acids. The salts of the compounds of the invention also include those formed with organic bases (e.g., pyridine, ammonia, or triethylamine) or inorganic bases (e.g., hydrides, hydroxides, or carbonates of sodium, potassium, lithium, calcium, magnesium or barium) when the compound contains an acidic group such as a carboxylic acid or phenol.

The term “optionally substituted” in connection with these J groups refers to groups which are unsubstituted or have at least one non-hydrogen substituent that does not extinguish the biological activity possessed by the unsubstituted analog. An example of phenyl optionally substituted with 1 to 4 R⁵ is the ring illustrated as U-1 in Exhibit 1, wherein R^(V) is R⁵ and r is an integer from 0 to 4. An example of a naphthyl group optionally substituted with 1 to 4 R⁵ is illustrated as U-85 in Exhibit 1, wherein R^(V) is R⁵ and r is an integer from 0 to 4. Examples of 5- or 6-membered heteroaromatic rings optionally substituted with 1 to 4 R⁵ include the rings U-2 through U-53 illustrated in Exhibit 1 wherein R^(V) is R⁵ and r is an integer from 0 to 4. Note that J-1 through J-13 below also denote 5- or 6-membered heteroaromatic rings. Note that U-2 through U-20 are examples of J-1, U-21 through U-35 and U-40 are examples of J-2, U-36 through U-39 are examples of J-3, U-41 through U-48 are examples of J-4 and U-49 through U-53 are examples of J-5. Note that U-11 is equivalent to J-6, U-26 is equivalent to J-7 or J-10, U-42 is equivalent to J-8, U-45 is equivalent to J-9, U-4 is equivalent to J-11 and U-24 is equivalent to J-12 or J-13. Also note that in J-6 through J-13 that R⁷ and R⁹ are subsets of R⁵ of Formula I. Examples of aromatic 8-, 9- or 10-membered fused heterobicyclic ring systems optionally substituted with 1 to 4 substituents independently selected from R⁵ include U-54 through U-84 illustrated in Exhibit 1 wherein R^(V) is R⁵ of Formula I and r is an integer from 0 to 4.

R^(V) is attached to these rings through any available carbon or nitrogen by replacement of a hydrogen on said carbon or nitrogen Note that some U groups can only be substituted with less than 4 R^(V) groups (e.g. U-16 through U-21 and U-32 through U-34 can only be substituted with one R^(V)). Note that when the attachment point between (R^(V))r and the U group is illustrated as floating, (R^(V))r can be attached to any available carbon or nitrogen of the U group. Note that when the attachment point on the U group is illustrated as floating, the U group can be attached to the remainder of Formula I through any available carbon or nitrogen of the U group by replacement of a hydrogen atom.

As noted above K is, together with the two contiguous linking carbon atoms, a fused phenyl, a fused pyridinyl ring or a fused pyrimidinyl ring optionally substituted with 1 to 4 substituents independently selected from R⁴. The term “optionally substituted” in connection with these K groups refers to groups which are unsubstituted or have at least one non-hydrogen substituent that does not extinguish the biological activity possessed by the unsubstituted analog. Examples of such K groups include the rings illustrated as K-1 through K-6 in Exhibit 2. Note that K-2 through K-5 can be optionally substituted with one to three substituents independently selected from R⁴. Also note that K-6 can be optionally substituted with one to two substituents independently selected from R⁴. In the exemplified K groups, the upper right bond is attached through the available linking carbon atom to the nitrogen atom of the N(L)-C(=A)J portion of Formula I and the lower right bond is attached through the available linking carbon atom to the carbon atom of the C(═B)N(L)R³ portion of Formula I. The wavy line indicates that the K-ring is attached to the remainder of Formula I as illustrated below.

Preferred K-rings are K-1, K-2, K-5 and K-6. Most preferred is K-1.

As noted above, L is a direct bond; or a linking chain of 1 to 3 members selected from carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur, optionally including one or two chain members as C(=E), SO or S(O)₂, and optionally substituted with one to three substituents independently selected from R¹³. The term “optionally substituted” in connection with these L groups refers to groups which are unsubstituted or have at least one non-hydrogen substituent that does not extinguish the biological activity possessed by the unsubstituted analog. Examples of L include the groups L-1 through L-17 illustrated in Exhibit 3. In L-17, t is an integer from 1 to 3. Although R⁶ groups are shown in the structure L-17, it is noted that they do not need to be present since they are optional substituents. Preferred L groups are L-1, L-6, L-7, L-9 and L-10.

As noted above, R³ can be (among others) C₁-C₆ alkyl, C₂-C₆ alkenyl, C₂-C₆ alkynyl, C₃-C₆ cycloalkyl, each optionally substituted with one to five substituents independently selected from the group consisting of a phenyl ring and 5- or 6-membered heteroaromatic ring, each ring optionally substituted with one to three substituents independently selected from R⁶. Examples of such rings incorporated into said R³ groups include the rings illustrated as U-1 through U-53 and U-86 illustrated in Exhibit 1, except that such rings are optionally substituted with 1 to 3 substituents independently selected from R⁶ rather than (R^(V))r and are attached to an R³ group selected from the list immediately above.

As noted above, R³ can be (among others) G; or C₁-C₆ alkyl, C₂-C₆ alkenyl, C₂-C₆ alkynyl, C₃-C₆ cycloalkyl, each optionally substituted with G; wherein G is a 5- or 6-membered nonaromatic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring, optionally including one or two ring members selected from the group consisting of C(═O), SO or S(O)₂ and optionally substituted with 1 to 4 substituents independently selected from R¹². The term “optionally substituted” in connection with these G groups refers to groups which are unsubstituted or have at least one non-hydrogen substituent that does not extinguish the biological activity possessed by the unsubstituted analog. The optional substituents can be attached to any available carbon by replacing a hydrogen atom. Examples of 5- or 6-membered nonaromatic carbocyclic rings as G include the rings illustrated as G-1 through G-8 of Exhibit 3.

This invention also pertains to a composition comprising a biologically effective amount of a compound of Formula I and an effective amount of at least one additional biologically active compound or agent. The preferred compositions of the present invention are those which comprise the above preferred compounds.

This invention also pertains to a method for controlling an invertebrate pest comprising contacting the invertebrate pest or its environment with a biologically effective amount of a compound of Formula I (e.g., as a composition described herein). This invention also relates to such a method wherein the invertebrate pest or its environment is contacted with a biologically effective amount of a compound of Formula I or a composition comprising a compound of Formula I and a biologically effective amount of at least one additional compound or agent for controlling invertebrate pests. The preferred methods of use are those involving the above preferred compounds.

The compounds of Formula I can be prepared by one or more of the following methods and variations as described in Schemes 1-1. The definitions of A, B, J, K, L, R³, R⁴, R⁵ and n in the compounds of Formulae I and 2-23 below are as defined above in the Summary of the Invention. Compounds of Formulae Ia-Ic, If, 2a-c, 9a-i and 10a-c are various subsets of the compounds of Formula I, 2, 9 and 10, respectively and all substituents for Formulae Ia-If are as defined above for Formula I.

As shown in Scheme 1, compounds of Formula I can be prepared by the reaction of aryl or heteroaryl amines of Formula 2 with acid chlorides of Formula 3 in the presence of a base to provide a compound of Formula Ia. The reaction can be run neat or in a variety of suitable solvents including tetrahydrofuran, toluene, methylene-chloride and chloroform with optimum temperatures ranging from room temperature to the reflux temperature of the solvent. Typical bases used in the reaction include amines such as triethylamine and pyridine, carbonates such as potassium and sodium carbonate and hydrides such as potassium and sodium hydride. In a subsequent step, compounds of Formula Ia can be converted to compounds of Formula Ib using a variety of standard thio transfer reagents including phosphorus pentasulfide and (2,4-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-dithia-2,4-diphosphetane-2,4-disulfide).

The preparation of compounds of Formula Ic, i.e. compounds of Formula I wherein K is K-1, is outlined in Scheme 2. Reaction of a quinazolinedione of Formula 2a (wherein L is CO) or a derivative of Formula 2b (wherein L is C₁-C₃ alkyl optionally substituted with one to three substituents independently selected from R¹³), with an acid chloride of Formula 3 provides a compound of Formula Ic. These procedures can also be applied to prepare compounds of Formula I wherein K is selected from K-2 through K-6.

As shown in Scheme 3, compounds Formula 2a can be prepared in two steps from known isatoic anhydrides. In the first step an isatoic anhydride of Formula 4 is reacted directly with an amine of Formula 5 either neat or in a suitable solvent to afford an amide of Formula 6. Treatment of the amide of Formula 6 with phosgene or a phosgene equivalent affords the quinazolinedione of Formula 2a.

As shown in Scheme 4, compounds of Formula 2b, wherein Rx and Ry are independently H and subsets of R¹³, can be prepared from compounds of Formula 6 by reaction with an aldehyde or ketone generally in the presence of an acid catalyst such as p-toluenesulfonic acid (pTSA). Azeotropic removal of the water as it is formed, or other methods of drying, can be useful in driving the reaction to completion.

As shown in Scheme 5, compounds of Formula 2c can be prepared by the Schmidt reaction from tetrahydroquinolinones of Formula 8 and sodium azide (J. Het. Chem. 1971, 8, 231-236). Reaction of a compound of Formula 2c with an acid chloride 3 in the presence of a base such as triethylamine affords a product of Formula If.

Acid chlorides of Formula 3 are well documented in the chemical literature and generally derived from the corresponding known aryl and heteroaryl carboxylic acids of Formula 9. Many of the carboxylic acids of Formula 9 are known in the literature. Procedures for the preparation of specific preferred acids of Formula 9a-9f and their derived acid chlorides are described in WO 01/70671.

The pyridylpyrazole carboxylic acids of Formula 9g-9i are a specifically preferred set of acids of Formula 9 (Scheme 7). Reaction of a pyrazole of Formula 10 with 2,3-dichloropyridine of Formula 11 affords good yields of the 1-pyridylpyrazole of Formula 12 with good specificity for the desired regiochemistry. Metallation of compounds of Formula 12 with lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) followed by quenching of the lithium salt with carbon dioxide affords the pyrazole acids of Formula 9g-9i. Additional details for the synthesis of Formula 9i are provided in Example 1.

The starting pyrazoles of Formula 10 are known compounds or can be prepared according to known methods. Pyrazole 10a can be prepared by literature procedures (J. Fluorine Chem. 1991, 53(1), 61-70). Pyrazoles of Formulae 10b and 10c can also be prepared by literature procedures (Chem. Ber. 1966, 99(10), 3350-7). A useful alternative for the preparation of 10b and 10c is depicted in Scheme 8. Metallation of the sulfamoyl pyrazole of Formula 13 with n-butyllithium (n-BuLi) followed by direct halogenation of the anion with either hexachloroethane or 1,2-dibromotetrachloroethane affords the halogenated derivatives of Formula 14. Removal of the sulfamoyl group with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) at room temperature proceeds cleanly and in good yield to afford the pyrazoles 10b and 10c respectively. Further experimental details for these procedures are described in Example 1.

As an alternative to the method illustrated in Scheme 7, pyrazolecarboxylic acids of Formula 9h and 9i can be prepared by the method outlined in Scheme 9. Reaction of hydrazinopyridine 15 with diethyl maleate affords pyrazolone 16. Chlorination or bromination with phosphorus oxychloride or phosphorus oxybromide affords the halo derivatives of Formula 17. Oxidization of a compound of Formula 17 optionally in the presence of acid to give a pyrazole ester followed by conversion of the ester function to the carboxylic acid provides a compound of Formula 9h or 9i. The oxidizing agent can be hydrogen peroxide, organic peroxides, potassium persulfate, sodium persulfate, ammonium persulfate, potassium monopersulfate (e.g., Oxone®) or potassium permanganate.

As an alternative to the method illustrated in Scheme 7, pyrazolecarboxylic acids of Formula 9g wherein R⁵ is CF₃ can also be prepared by the method outlined in Scheme 10.

Reaction of a compound of Formula 18 with a suitable base in a suitable organic solvent affords the cyclized product of Formula 19 after neutralization with an acid such as acetic acid. The suitable base can be, for example, sodium hydride, potassium t-butoxide, dimsyl sodium (CH₃S(O)CH₂ ^({circle around (−)})Na^({circle around (+)})), alkali metal (such as lithium, sodium or potassium) carbonates or hydroxides, tetraalkyl (such as methyl, ethyl or butyl)ammonium fluorides or hydroxides, or 2-tert-butylimino-2-diethylamino-1,3-dimethyl-perhydro-1,3,2-diazaphosphonine. The suitable organic solvent can be, for example, acetone, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, dichloromethane, dimethylsulfoxide, or N,N-dimethylformamide. Dehydration of the compound of Formula 19 to give the compound of Formula 20, followed by converting the carboxylic ester function to carboxylic acid, affords the acids of Formula 9g. The dehydration is effected by treatment with a catalytic amount of a suitable acid such as sulfuric acid.

Compounds of Formula 18 can be prepared by the method outlined in Scheme 11.

wherein R⁵ is CF₃.

Treatment of a hydrazine compound of Formula 21 with a ketone of Formula 22 in a solvent such as water, methanol or acetic acid gives the hydrazone of Formula 23. Reaction of the hydrazone of Formula 23 with ethyl oxalyl chloride in a suitable organic solvent such as dichloromethane or tetrahydrofuran in the presence of an acid scavenger such as triethylamine provides the compound of Formula 18. Hydrazine compounds of Formula 21 can be prepared by standard methods, such as by contacting the corresponding halo compound of Formula 11 with hydrazine.

It is recognized that some reagents and reaction conditions described above for preparing compounds of Formula I may not be compatible with certain functionalities present in the intermediates. In these instances, the incorporation of protection/deprotection sequences or functional group interconversions into the synthesis will aid in obtaining the desired products. The use and choice of the protecting groups will be apparent to one skilled in chemical synthesis (see, for example, Greene, T. W.; Wuts, P. G. M. Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2nd ed.; Wiley: New York, 1991). One skilled in the art will recognize that, in some cases, after the introduction of a given reagent as it is depicted in any individual scheme, it may be necessary to perform additional routine synthetic steps not described in detail to complete the synthesis of compounds of Formula I. One skilled in the art will also recognize that it may be necessary to perform a combination of the steps illustrated in the above schemes in an order other than that implied by the particular sequence presented to prepare the compounds of Formula I. One skilled in the art will also recognize that compounds of Formula I and the intermediates described herein can be subjected to various electrophilic, nucleophilic, radical, organometallic, oxidation, and reduction reactions to add substituents or modify existing substituents.

Step A: Preparation of 3-bromo-N,N-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-1-sulfonamide

To a solution of N-dimethylsulfamoylpyrazole (44.0 g, 0.251 mol) in dry tetrahydrofuran (500 mL) at −78° C. was added dropwise a solution of n-butyllithium (2.5 M in hexane, 105.5 mL, 0.264 mol) while maintaining the temperature below −60° C. A thick solid formed during the addition. Upon completion of the addition the reaction mixture was maintained for an additional 15 minutes, after which time a solution of 1,2-dibromo-tetrachloroethane (90 g, 0.276 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (150 mL) was added dropwise while maintaining the temperature below −70° C. The reaction mixture turned a clear orange; stirring was continued for an additional 15 minutes. The −78° C. bath was removed and the reaction was quenched with water (600 mL). The reaction mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (4×), and the organic extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The crude product was further purified by chromatography on silica gel using dichloromethane/hexane (50:50) as eluent to afford the title product as a clear colorless oil (57.04 g).

Compounds of this invention will generally be used as a formulation or composition with an agriculturally suitable carrier comprising at least one of a liquid diluent, a solid diluent or a surfactant. The formulation or composition ingredients are selected to be consistent with the physical properties of the active ingredient, mode of application and environmental factors such as soil type, moisture and temperature. Useful formulations include liquids such as solutions (including emulsifiable concentrates), suspensions, emulsions (including microemulsions and/or suspoemulsions) and the like which optionally can be thickened into gels. Useful formulations further include solids such as dusts, powders, granules, pellets, tablets, films, and the like which can be water-dispersible (“wettable”) or water-soluble. Active ingredient can be (micro)encapsulated and further formed into a suspension or solid formulation; alternatively the entire formulation of active ingredient can be encapsulated (or “overcoated”). Encapsulation can control or delay release of the active ingredient. Sprayable formulations can be extended in suitable media and used at spray volumes from about one to several hundred liters per hectare. High-strength compositions are primarily used as intermediates for further formulation.

The formulations will typically contain effective amounts of active ingredient, diluent and surfactant within the following approximate ranges that add up to 100 percent by weight. Weight Percent Active Ingredient Diluent Surfactant Water-Dispersible and 5-90  0-94 1-15 Water-soluble Granules, Tablets and Powders. Suspensions, Emulsions, 5-50 40-95 0-15 Solutions (including Emulsifiable Concentrates) Dusts 1-25 70-99 0-5  Granules and Pellets 0.01-99      5-99.99 0-15 High Strength Compositions 90-99   0-10 0-2 

Typical solid diluents are described in Watkins, et al., Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers, 2nd Ed., Dorland Books, Caldwell, N.J. Typical liquid diluents are described in Marsden, Solvents Guide, 2nd Ed., Interscience, New York, 1950. McCutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual, Allured Publ. Corp., Ridgewood, N.J., as well as Sisely and Wood, Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents, Chemical Publ. Co., Inc., New York, 1964, list surfactants and recommended uses. All formulations can contain minor amounts of additives to reduce foam, caking, corrosion, microbiological growth and the like, or thickeners to increase viscosity.

Surfactants include, for example, polyethoxylated alcohols, polyethoxylated alkylphenols, polyethoxylated sorbitan fatty acid esters, dialkyl sulfosuccinates, alkyl sulfates, alkylbenzene sulfonates, organosilicones, N,N-dialkyltaurates, lignin sulfonates, naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde condensates, polycarboxylates, and polyoxyethylene/polyoxypropylene block copolymers. Solid diluents include, for example, clays such as bentonite, montmorillonite, attapulgite and kaolin, starch, sugar, silica, talc, diatomaceous earth, urea, calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate and bicarbonate, and sodium sulfate. Liquid diluents include, for example, water, N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, N-alkylpyrrolidone, ethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, paraffins, alkylbenzenes, alkylnaphthalenes, oils of olive, castor, linseed, tung, sesame, corn, peanut, cotton-seed, soybean, rape-seed and coconut, fatty acid esters, ketones such as cyclohexanone, 2-heptanone, isophorone and 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pentanone, and alcohols such as methanol, cyclohexanol, decanol and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol.

Solutions, including emulsifiable concentrates, can be prepared by simply mixing the ingredients. Dusts and powders can be prepared by blending and, usually, grinding as in a hammer mill or fluid-energy mill. Suspensions are usually prepared by wet-milling; see, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,060,084. Granules and pellets can be prepared by spraying the active material upon preformed granular carriers or by agglomeration techniques. See Browning, “Agglomeration”, Chemical Engineering, Dec. 4, 1967, pp 147-48, Perry's Chemical Engineer's Handbook, 4th Ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1963, pages 8-57 and following, and PCT Publication WO 91/13546. Pellets can be prepared as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,172,714. Water-dispersible and water-soluble granules can be prepared as taught in U.S. Pat. No. 4,144,050, U.S. Pat. No. 3,920,442 and DE 3,246,493. Tablets can be prepared as taught in U.S. Pat. No. 5,180,587, U.S. Pat. No. 5,232,701 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,208,030. Films can be prepared as taught in GB 2,095,558 and U.S. Pat. No. 3,299,566.

Compounds of this invention are characterized by favorable metabolic and/or soil residual patterns and exhibit activity controlling a spectrum of agronomic and non-agronomic invertebrate pests. (In the context of this disclosure “invertebrate pest control” means inhibition of invertebrate pest development (including mortality) that causes significant reduction in feeding or other injury or damage caused by the pest; related expressions are defined analogously.) As referred to in this disclosure, the term “invertebrate pest” includes arthropods, gastropods and nematodes of economic importance as pests. The term “arthropod” includes insects, mites, spiders, scorpions, centipedes, millipedes, pill bugs and symphylans. The term “gastropod” includes snails, slugs arid other Stylommatophora. The term “nematode” includes all of the helminths, such as: roundworms, heartworms, and phytophagous nematodes (Nematoda), flukes (Tematoda), Acanthocephala, and tapeworms (Cestoda). Those skilled in the art will recognize that not all compounds are equally effective against all pests. Compounds of this invention display activity against economically important agronomic and nonagronomic pests. The term “agronomic” refers to the production of field crops such as for food and fiber and includes the growth of cereal crops (e.g., wheat, oats, barley, rye, rice, maize), soybeans, vegetable crops (e.g., lettuce, cabbage, tomatoes, beans), potatoes, sweet potatoes, grapes, cotton, and tree fruits (e.g., pome fruits, stone fruits and citrus fruits). The term “nonagronomic” refers to other horticultural (e.g., forest, greenhouse, nursery or ornamental plants not grown in a field), public (human) and animal health, domestic and commercial structure, household, and stored product applications or pests. For reason of invertebrate pest control spectrum and economic importance, protection (from damage or injury caused by invertebrate pests) of agronomic crops of cotton, maize, soybeans, rice, vegetable crops, potato, sweet potato, grapes and tree fruit by controlling invertebrate pests are preferred embodiments of the invention. Agronomic or nonagronomic pests include larvae of the order Lepidoptera, such as armyworms, cutworms, loopers, and heliothines in the family Noctuidae (e.g., fall armyworm (Spodoptera fugiperda J. E.

In certain instances, combinations with other invertebrate pest control compounds or agents having a similar spectrum of control but a different mode of action will be particularly advantageous for resistance management. Thus, compositions of the present invention can further comprise a biologically effective amount of at least one additional invertebrate pest control compound or agent having a similar spectrum of control but a different mode of action. Contacting a plant genetically modified to express a plant protection compound (e.g., protein) or the locus of the plant with a biologically effective amount of a compound of invention can also provide a broader spectrum of plant protection and be advantageous for resistance management.

Invertebrate pests are controlled in agronomic and nonagronomic applications by applying one or more of the compounds of this invention, in an effective amount, to the environment of the pests including the agronomic and/or nonagronomic locus of infestation, to the area to be protected, or directly on the pests to be controlled. Thus, the present invention further comprises a method for the control of invertebrates in agronomic and/or nonagronomic applications, comprising contacting the invertebrates or their environment with a biologically effective amount of one or more of the compounds of the invention, or with a composition comprising at least one such compound or a composition comprising at least one such compound and an effective amount of at least one additional biologically active compound or agent.

A preferred method of contact is by spraying. Alternatively, a granular composition comprising a compound of the invention can be applied to the plant foliage or the soil. Compounds of this invention are also effectively delivered through plant uptake by contacting the plant with a composition comprising a compound of this invention applied as a soil drench of a liquid formulation, a granular formulation to the soil, a nursery box treatment or a dip of transplants. Compounds are also effective by topical application of a composition comprising a compound of this invention to the locus of infestation. Other methods of contact include application of a compound or a composition of the invention by direct and residual sprays, aerial sprays, seed coatings, microencapsulations, systemic uptake, baits, eartags, boluses, foggers, fumigants, aerosols, dusts and many others.

The compounds of this invention can be incorporated into baits that are consumed by the invertebrates or within devices such as traps and the like. Granules or baits comprising between 0.01-5% active ingredient, 0.05-10% moisture retaining agent(s) and 40-99% vegetable flour are effective in controlling soil insects at very low application rates, particularly at doses of active ingredient that are lethal by ingestion rather than by direct contact.

The compounds of this invention can be applied in their pure state, but most often application will be of a formulation comprising one or more compounds with suitable carriers, diluents, and surfactants and possibly in combination with a food depending on the contemplated end use. A preferred method of application involves spraying a water dispersion or refined oil solution of the compounds. Combinations with spray oils, spray oil concentrations, spreader stickers, adjuvants, other solvents, and synergists such as piperonyl butoxide often enhance compound efficacy.

The rate of application required for effective control (i.e. “biologically effective amount”) will depend on such factors as the species of invertebrate to be controlled, the pest's life cycle, life stage, its size, location, time of year, host crop or animal, feeding behavior, mating behavior, ambient moisture, temperature, and the like. Under normal circumstances, application rates of about 0.01 to 2 kg of active ingredient per hectare are sufficient to control pests in agronomic ecosystems, but as little as 0.0001 kg/hectare may be sufficient of as much as 8 kg/hectare may be required. For nonagronomic applications, effective use rates will range from about 1.0 to 50 mg/square meter but as little as 0.1 mg/square meter may be sufficient or as much as 150 mg/square meter may be required. One skilled in the art can easily determine the biologically effective amount necessary for the desired level of invertebrate pest control.

BIOLOGICAL EXAMPLES OF THE INVENTION Test A

For evaluating control of diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) the test unit consisted of a small open container with a 12-14-day-old radish plant inside. This was pre-infested with 10-15 neonate larvae on a piece of insect diet by use of a core sampler to remove a plug from a sheet of hardened insect diet having many larvae growing on it and transfer the plug containing larvae and diet to the test unit. The larvae moved onto the test plant as the diet plug dried out.

Test compounds were formulated using a solution containing 10% acetone, 90% water and 300 ppm X-77® Spreader Lo-Foam Formula non-ionic surfactant containing alkylarylpolyoxyethylene, free fatty acids, glycols and isopropanol (Loveland Industries, Inc). The formulated compounds were applied in 1 mL of liquid through a SUJ2 atomizer nozzle with 1/8 JJ custom body (Spraying Systems Co.) positioned 1.27 cm (0.5 inches) above the top of each test unit. All experimental compounds in this screen were sprayed at 50 ppm and replicated three times. After spraying of the formulated test compound, each test unit was allowed to dry for 1 hour and then a black, screened cap was placed on top. The test units were held for 6 days in a growth chamber at 25° C. and 70% relative humidity. Plant feeding damage was then visually assessed.

Of the compounds tested, the following provided excellent levels of plant protection (20% or less feeding damage): 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 22, 23, 24, 26, 28 and 29.
